New York, Nov. 29 - Far East Consortium International Ltd. said the underwriter of its recent offering of zero-coupon convertible bonds exercised the HK$98.6 million over-allotment option in full, raising the size of the deal to HK$754.6 million.

The Hong Kong-based real estate development and hotel company originally priced HK$656 million of the securities on Nov. 9 to yield 2.25% with a 34.43% initial conversion premium.

Deutsche Bank was lead manager of the sale.

Far East Consortium will use proceeds to repay loans, to expand the company's real estate development and hotel divisions and for working capital.
